    Need more space to Install VLC plugin - How to delete some files?

    Hy Guys,
    I was trying to install the VLC plugin on my Dreambox 500-S and I got an error message everytime (Not Enough Disk Space)
    I have only 122ko left and I need 440ko
    Can anyone please told me how can I free up some space by deleting some useless files?

    Thanks for your time

        On Pli Image, This is how I would do it


        Menu > Setup > Software Management > Remove Software


        Remove what is not needed in there

          Can't find 'Remove Software' on my menu setup!

          I tried to remove some channels and providers that I don't use, but it didn't gives me too much free space.

          Any other ideas please?

            I have read about poor quality when using vlc on dm500. Is this true and how bad it is?

              i think i read that low memory is an issue with PLI Jade - believe its possible to reflash with an alternative PLI image which has extended memory. sure if you look in the downloads you'll see it.

                    On D.K.1.1 image go to add-ons uninstall, there you can delete
                    any unwanted cams or games etc. If your box is permanently
                    connected to internet you can store dreambox var files on P.C. memory
